[Archived] Smooth Fm St George's Hall

Ronseal. Are they any good? Me and me mates love Mo-Town and soul but hard to find decent night time venues with this music only nowadays in the younger age bracket. So what these nights like "demographically"....young'uns and old'uns mixing in peace? Just old'uns? Any help much appreciated!

Warrington folk aren't welcome at this event.

Recommended. A good mix of people from literally all over. The travel lodges by J4 M65 and the Fernhurst are always full of soul heads on these nights. Last time I met some people from the USA! Get a ticket a week before at the latest - they usually sell out.

To be honest bob, I have seen the nights in town and as said above are extremely popular. From what I've seen going in and coming out of King George's on those nights the crowd is middle aged, probably even a few of whom used to grace the Wigan Casino.

Bob, if you like this type of thing, then I'd like to recommend a night in Manchester.

Friday Night - Northern Soul at One Central Street.....It's tucked away behind the town hall.

You look for the website on your search engine....you might want to look at Funkademia website and find northern soul from there...

Should be right up your street....there's a real mix of people from students to 30/40 year olds...
